Abstract

This study investigates how students of Master degree at the Department of English - College of Basic Education University of Mosul, for the academic year 2021-2022, recognize conditional conjunctions pragmatically. Samples of the study are 12 MA students who study English as a foreign language. This study contains two main parts: theoretical part and practical part. The theoretical part includes a short introduction on conjunctions in general, and conditional conjunctions in particular .In this part, conditional conjunctions from the perspective of pragmatics are tackled. The practical part includes a self - administered questionnaire. The questionnaire consists of 10 questions in the form of conditional sentences and it requires the use of a given conditional conjunction between parentheses in front of each sentence. The results show that it is a difficult task for the MA students considered in this study to recognize the conditional conjunctions pragmatically.
